Calcium problems.

[StirCrazy]

Ok this rears its ugly head again.. for three weeks I let stuff sit on the shelf and did more reaserch and tried the waiting game.. in that three weeks my MG cam up 20 ppm and my Ca came up 10 ppm. doing some more reading yesterday I decided to go ahead and raise my Mg and also my Ca to proper levels.

this is the reasioning behind my desision.

I started with my Mg yesterday, I raised it 100 ppm in 24 hours (max recomended on the bottle so it is probably a conservitave amount) and I took my Mg up to 990 ppm, my Ca increased 20 ppm ( to 245ppm ) as a result of the increase of Mg. I dosed another Mg tonight and I expect my level to be about 1100 tomorrow and I will test Ca to see if it jumps again with the increase.

once I get my Mg to 1300 (which I think will finnish this bottle) I will let it stabalize for a few days then increase the Ca to whare it should be.

I am writing all the measurments down and I will try to see if I can come up with any corralation between the Mg and Ca levels when I am done.
